Bar-B-Que Wagon — Restaurant in Bryson City

The food was excellent. I had the ribs, brisket, potato salad, coleslaw, Hush Puppies, fry bread and sweet tea. I got the meal to share with my dog because we're traveling in my van. My dog loves ribs and the meat on these ribs fell off bone with no effort. I didn't have to pull them apart it... was amazing ....but we both loved the brisket. We fought over the last piece. And my dog is the real food snob here he's really picky about his barbecue...I love the spices they use. .. I can't put my finger on it but it has a unique taste!!! Normally, I go for the mustard based sauce but I actually liked The Vinegar Sauce better,. I also normally like my potato salad with a little more mustard but their's had enough pickle in it to balance out that Bland mayo flavor, most potato salads have....iit was so good, it was comparable to my mother's and nobody can top her potato salad but out of everything the fry bread was my favorite and the only reason it didn't give it all stars is because it was pricey for the serving size.. I think we can blame that on the economy and not the actual restaurant but that's the only complaint I have... otherwise this is one of the best barbecue spots I have ever been to. I sat at the picnic bench in the parking lot and watched kayakers below, it was in the shade and surprisingly not a lot of bugs. I also want to mention that the service was impeccable and the food was ready really fast . I was very impressed and I definitely will...

I'm not one to usually comment on reviews.. But i had to this time.. I'm on a week vacation in Cherokee NC.. I asked the hotel attendant where was some good bbq she recommended the "BBQ WAGON".. I drove 10 miles just to be greeted with stares oh i left out that I'm African American and i was with my partner.. I placed my order and was told to take a seat inside are out, but we noticed other customers (Caucasian) stood by to get their food.. We sat outside and had to keep checking on our food and that's when the older lady advised us that our number would be called over a intercom.. Something that never happen.. After waiting a young lady walks out with our food and told us that the intercom DIDN'T work.. Ok so now the food.. I order the half of chicken meal the chicken was bland, dry and jus plan disgusting!! The potatoe salad was almost mashed potatoes and i think they changed their mind the Cole slaw was good and the vinegar bbq.. My partner order the pulled beef sandwich she did NOT enjoy it because it was not seasoned and the fries were horrible and seemed as if they had set in old oil.. It was a waste of money and my gas.. I would NOT recommend this place to anyone.. Save your taste buds for...

Pros and Cons. Pros: Good customer service, nice theme, great parking space,, wheelchair disabled accessible with ramp, Pavillion of the river view, parking for motorcycles on the side, and I like their honey BBQ sauce. Cons: Their BBQ is nasty. I tried their chopped. Their Chopped is the worst tasting my stomach and taste buds hated it. The chicken breast and brisket was disappointing as well. I have lived in Texas for over a decade, I ate Rudy's and other BBQ places there, so maybe my standards are higher since my BBQ experiences are at the caliber, so if you are from Texas or California (two places I'm from) I don't recommend this BBQ place. OVERALL OPINION: If you're from small towns with poor quality food, I guess you'll think it's one of the best tasting BBQ ever, which really surprises me that anyone could ever think that, but as we were leaving I heard someone say,"Boy this was the best tasting BBQ I've ever had." All while I wanted to spit it out, so to each their own. It had to be the worst tasting for me. I was taught to always finish my food, but I couldn't force myself to do it any longer and it had to go in the trash. My friend loved his brisket and he...
